Over the past few weeks, and for some reason, especially today - surfing EBay listings is setting off my antivirus alert very often.

Strange - haven't had this happen with EBay in earlier times

Anyone else experiencing this ?

Ebay is experiencing major issues today.

But I haven't had that one.

What security software are you using and what are the alerts saying?

Avast..and it is stating (numerous times today) that it has blocked unwanted threatening items...ie/ the normal warning

However - it is rare for me to ever see that alert..ever...much less on EBay

and... to those that may be wondering silently...NOOOOO.. I'm not searching any "ahemmm...interesting products"
lol

If it is Ebay that has set off Avast there won't be anything Mario can do about it.

Once Ebay functions again... I think you should tell them about it... it would be great if you can come back and tell us what they say.
